FORD TRANSIT CONNECT2015 · 1.6L Diesel

The 2015 Ford Transit Connect remains roadworthy as of its most recent MOT on 2026-01-31 at 96,444 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend shows stability over the past three years, as the vehicle has passed all subsequent tests without issues. However, a 2025-02-12 entry lists both a PASS and FAIL for the same mileage, which may indicate a data inconsistency. No structural, braking, or suspension faults were noted in the valid tests, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to acceptable standards. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 11-year-old van, averaging 8,768 miles annually. A notable gap between 2022-09-30 (52,506 miles) and 2023-10-06 (66,299 miles) reflects a 13,793-mile increase over 13 months, followed by a 21,563-mile rise by 2025-02-12. These fluctuations suggest variable usage but no immediate red flags. The most recent 8,582-mile increment between 2025-02-12 and 2026-01-31 indicates steady, moderate driving. While no defects were recorded, the van’s age and mileage warrant a physical inspection of the suspension components, including coil springs and bushes, which can degrade over time. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear or corrosion, and the exhaust system inspected for leaks or rust. Buyers should also verify the structural integrity of the chassis, as older vans may develop hidden rust in load-bearing areas. The absence of advisories in the MOT history is positive but does not eliminate the need for a hands-on assessment.
